Every girl and women know how difficult it is to choose a winter wedding outfit that balances both style and warmth. They often have to ditch their backless blouses to keep themselves cosy during winter, which ruins their mood. But what if we say you can wear your favourite wedding dress in the cold season? Are you excited to know how? By styling your attire with chic ethnic jackets. Here is how you can style these stunning jackets with your sharara, suit, lehenga, saree, anarkali or any traditional outfit that you want to wear.
1. Choose the fabric wisely
Winters is the perfect season to embrace fabrics which are luxurious, warm and cosy, such as silk, velvet and brocade. Ethnic jackets made from these fabrics will keep you warm while adding a touch of glamour to your appearance. Also, look for the lining inside the jacket; if it is made from soft and warm materials such as wool, satin and fleece, you will feel comfortable wearing it.
2. Pair it with the right outfit
Though you can wear an ethnic jacket with any outfit, whether it is a saree, suit, Anarkali or sharara, it is vital to balance the jacket style with the rest of your attire. Let us say, you decided to wear a beautiful silk saree at the wedding, in that case consider wearing a long jacket with it. This will enhance the overall appearance of your saree and help you grab the attention of everyone. Similarly, long jackets look stunning with Anarkali suits and lehengas. Conversely, short jackets complement long kurtas and matching palazzos or lehengas.
3. Don’t forget colour matters a lot
The colour of ethnic winter jackets, just like other attires, can make or break your overall look. So, carefully choose the hue, taking everything into account, from the time at which the wedding is taking place to your skin tone and everything in between. Besides this, ensure that the jacket colour complements your attire and enhances your overall appearance. For example, if you are wearing a dark kurta, pick a royal blue or mustard colour ethnic jacket with it.
4. Complement your looks with the right accessories
After fabric, colour and outfit, the next thing you should keep in mind while styling your jacket is jewellery. So, pick statement necklaces, chandelier earrings, and beautiful maang tikka that go well with the design and pattern of your ethnic jacket. Similarly, choose footwear that adds to your overall look, such as juttis, and high heels, but ensure they are comfortable otherwise it will be difficult for you to move here and there.
5. Play with layers
Have you ever tried wearing an ethnic jacket over a shawl? If yes, you are doing the right thing. If not, you should consider it. And believe us, it will look great on you. A shawl will provide warmth as well as contribute to your overall style. You can experiment with wearing acro wool Indian winter jackets with different lengths of shawls. Varying lengths will create a visual interest in your outfit and what else you need.
The bottom line
Styling traditional winter jackets is all about expressing yourself, and there are many ways to do this, as discussed above. So, this winter, don’t shy away from wearing this beautiful attire and show others what you got. We believe whosoever wedding you are attending, you will become the talk of the event. Embrace their charm and let them reflect your confidence and your grace!
